Hi,

I have Visual studio 2013 installed with TFS 2012 in my machine.
First time when I created a work space it asked me to provide the owner's user id and password.
I have given that and created the workspace.
Now my user id and password is changed so I want over write the older owner user ID.
Is this possible to do so.

Please advise.

Thanks & Regards,
Mathi.

Solution 1

Manage Workspaces --> Edit Workspace --> Select Advanced
In the Advanced Edit Workspace Window, you will find option for Owner. You can update there.
Try it out once and let me know if that works..
